Recipe of the month : Carrots in Marsala Wine

Contrairement à une idée fort commune, la cuisine sicilienne n’est pas sans beurre. Les « carote al marsala » en sont une bonne illustration, simplement cuites dans du beurre et du marsala, ce vin de liqueur produit dans la région de la ville sicilienne du même nom. Nous en avons affiné la cuisson et ajouté un parfum de coriandre.

Cette recette est extraite de l’application «Mon Grand Livre de Cuisine : recettes et techniques d’Alain Ducasse pour iPad »
